Our raw feeding journey and pet food business La Casa De Corso Raw Meats ( now known as Ancestral Raw Nutrition) started in 2021 but our story started long before that.
Founder and CFO Jay and CEO Stefania, husband and wife, struggled for years with their long-time pet companion and kibble-fed pit bull terrier Tank aka “Papa”, Papa struggled with food allergies since he was a puppy, his list of allergies started with severe hot spots, oozing ear infections, and dry-itchy skin. As Papa aged he began to show signs of severe weight loss, loss of appetite, fatigue, and nausea. We spent thousands of dollars at the vet, fed the best “vet recommended” kibbles, and with countless medications Papa kept getting worse and he was soon diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease.
During this time, Jay started his research on Papa’s medical conditions and began to create raw blends in the kitchen of his home soon he created a raw blend that was frozen and individuality into cut blocks with no packaging for easy feeding, which later evolved into one of our most popular blends, La Casa Blend. Papa was feed La Casa Blend for the remainder of his life, his life span was prolonged by 6 long healthy years, his allergies disappeared and quality of life improved and he had an appetite like never before.
Over the years our small family-owned business began to focus on providing pet owners an easy, convenient, and more affordable way to feed their pets a prey model raw diet with quality ingredients and our story has allowed us to rebrand and now call ourselves Ancestral Raw Nutrition which was created on the basis of how you can too successfully feed a prey model raw diet to naturally sustain your pet’s health.
